Rodrigo Mora gave an interview to Sky Sports after AS Roma beat Lecce 4-0 in the second round of Serie A. The 19-year-old Portuguese player scored for the first time for the Italian club, netting the fourth and final goal of the match.

“I’m happy to have started this experience here in Rome so well. For me, today is an important day, I’m pleased and I will keep going like this. Understanding with Dybala and Malen? As I’ve said on other occasions, for me, playing with Paulo Dybala is a dream. Today I tried to set him up with an assist, but I couldn’t. We’ll try again next week,” he said, in comments reported by the Italian press.

Speaking about his relationship with the coach, the young player highlighted the manager’s importance in his move to Italy and stressed his desire to keep developing under his guidance.

“My relationship with the coach? He was fundamental in leading me to make the decision to come here; I know he likes players with my characteristics and I want to keep improving alongside him. I still haven’t had the chance to visit the city of Rome, but I’m very happy with the support and affection of the fans”, he added.
